Chapter 8: Wait... Wait, Did My Daughter Just Got Married Now?

When Dracula brings Jonny out of the hotel and starts to scold him, he creates many problems for him in the hotel.

Hearing Dracula's reasons, Jonny snapped back, stating that he just showed them how to have fun.

While the argument was escalating, Jonny questioned Dracula, asking if he even knew how to have fun.

"I invented fun."

When Dracula heard Jonny, he puffed his chest, raised his hand, and declared loudly,

"Well, the wrong people get to be immortal."

Jonny turned his back on Dracula angrily, pouting with folded hands.

'This isn't going anywhere.'

Dracula rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"Look at me. You remember nothing of this encounter. You have no memory of this place or the monsters you met. Now go and never return."

He walked before Jonny, covered himself with his cloak, and looked at Jonny with narrowed eyes, a red light flashing in his eyes.

While Jonny stared at Dracula's eyes without blinking, thinking he succeeded in hypnotizing the human in front of him, suddenly, Jonny shook his head from the daze and looked normal.

"Wait, never return to the hotel?"

Hearing Dracula's comment, Jonny asked him in confusion.

"____"

"____"

This conversation was heard by four people who were hiding in the forest behind the cemetery: Darcy, Martha, Mavis, and Leo, who were pointing at Dracula.

Before 30 minutes...

After Dracula dragged Jonny angrily, saying that both of them had some important work to do.

"Mother? Why is father behaving strangely whenever Jonny Stane is around?"

Darcy looked in the direction of her father's left.

"Honey, don't be disappointed. You know how your father is when he comes to his daughter."

Seeing the depressed look on Darcy's face, Martha consoled her with sweet words.

"Then why did he not stop Mavis but stopped me?"

When Darcy heard Martha's reasoning, she pointed at Mavis and Leo, who walked towards them.

"____"

Hearing her daughter's reason, Martha too became confused.

Seeing her mother deep in thought, Darcy suddenly remembered the event when the armor came to give the complaint of the consumer.

She told everything to Martha, who widened her eyes in shock because until now, Dracula never avoided a customer complaint.

As soon as he heard it, he would immediately go to solve the problem like there is no tomorrow.

"Mother, I think he is Father's secret son."

Seeing her mother look surprised, Darcy continued to tell her the doubts she had about the relationship between Dracula and Jonny.

"What are you saying, Darcy? How can you doubt your father?"

Hearing the doubts of Darcy, Martha retorted, thinking how ridiculous it was.

'It must be right...'

There was a tinge of small doubt still lingering in her heart.

"____"

Hearing her daughter's crazy assumption, Martha and Leo were speechless.

Cough... cough...

"I can assure you it is nothing like that."

Leo interrupted the wild imagination of the positive wife and pitiful daughter.

'Yeah, I must be overreacting... if it's true, fufu~ darling, I will punish you very hard so that you will never think of another woman.'

When Martha heard Leo, she calmed down a bit, but she was emitting a creepy aura and some giggles in the end.

Seeing that Leo might know the reason for Dracula's strange behavior, all three of them looked at him, waiting for his answer.

"You see, in our case, he knew who I was. But in Jonny's case, it's a little complicated. If you want to know, we can follow them. It will be known to all sooner or later."

After discussing for a few minutes, all three of them decided to follow Dracula and Jonny to see what was going on.

When they followed the trace left by Dracula, they saw he had gone out of the castle, leaving behind his daughter's birthday party.

After following the trace, they arrived at the cemetery before their hotel.

They heard the entire conversation between Dracula and Jonny.

Martha looked at Darcy worriedly because she knew her younger daughter had fallen for a human and looked at Dracula with an understanding of why he was so opposed to the relationship with his daughter.

Hearing that Jonny lied to her, Darcy looked sad, feeling betrayed.

Seeing her sister in this condition, Mavis placed her hands on her shoulders with a worried look on her face.

Sigh...

"Not every human is a bad person. Like how there are bad people among monsters, there are good people among humans too."

With a sigh, Leo gave a piece of his mind to the three in front of him.

Cemetery...

Dracula looked at Jonny with wide eyes because this was the first time he failed to hypnotize someone.

"What? You were supposed to forget the hotel. I just used my powers to erase your memory. I looked straight into your eyes!"

Not able to believe that his hypnosis had failed, Dracula asked Jonny confusedly.

"Huh. Oh, maybe it's the contact lenses."

Thinking for a few seconds, Jonny pointed at his eyes.

"What?!"

Sigh...

"These little plasticky doodads that help me see better. Here, let me try and get them out real quick."

Seeing that Dracula didn't get what he was saying, Jonny opened one of his eyes wide and tried to take the contact lens from his eyes.

"Oh, that is the most disgusting thing I've ever seen!"

Seeing that Jonny was doing something to his eyes, Dracula looked disgusted.

Not caring about their reaction to Dracula, Jonny took the lens from his eyes.

"Stop doing that! Please stop doing that! Fingers away from the eyeballs! Enough! Listen to me. You are never to return here.

You are to stay away and never tell humans about this place.

Or I will track you down and suck every ounce of blood from your body until you look like a deflated whoopee cushion! Be gone."

Dracula stopped Jonny and hurriedly finished his sentence, about to vanish from the cemetery. He felt a hand tapping on his shoulders from behind.

"____"

When Dracula turned back, he saw his wife Martha, Mavis, and Darcy looking at him with narrowed eyes.

"Hi... hi honey... what are you guys doing here."

Looking at his family before him, Dracula chuckled nervously.

"Count Dracula! We need to talk. And you, young man, you too."

With a deep voice, Martha said, making it clear that there was a lot of anger hidden beneath each word she spoke.

After that day, both Dracula and Jonny were grounded for a week in the same room.

Except for eating, drinking, or other daily necessary things, they were not allowed to step out of the room.

During the birthday party when Mavis cut the purplish cake before her, everyone who arrived at the party presented the gifts they prepared for Mavis.

When it was Leo's turn, Mavis looked at him with expectations, wondering what he was going to give her.

Leo, with a confident smile, stepped onto the stage.

Suddenly, the lights went off, and only a single light was pointed at the stage.

The crowd became silent, looking at the scene with interest.

This was the first time they saw the light effect.

For this, Leo had trained those zombies for three hours.

"Mother, what is going on?"

Seeing that all the lights in the hall were extinguished except the moonlight, which was directed at the stage using mirror deflections.

"It seems like something interesting is going to happen."

Martha, too, looked surprised because this was the first time it was happening.

The monsters also looked at the scene, expecting to know what was going to happen.

Suddenly, Leo kneeled before Mavis. She looked at Leo's action confusedly. What was he doing?

Huff...

"Mavis, you're the one I want to annoy for the rest of my life. I promise not to keep score in our arguments, even though I'm winning. You are everything to me. I love you. Marry me?"

Leo took a flower bouquet made of black roses and a pair of diamond rings in the middle of the bouquet and proposed to Mavis sincerely.

Suddenly, a few witches flew here and there on their flying brooms, throwing black rose petals.

"____"

Mavis looked at Leo, who was kneeling before her with a shocked face and snapped out of the trance.

She nodded her head while happy tears started to come from her eyes.

Giggle...

"I do. I too love you."

Mavis, with a happy giggle, nodded her head with a wide smile visible on her face and took the flower bouquet.

Sigh...

Seeing Mavis accept his proposal, Leo had a sigh of relief because this was the first time in his life he proposed to someone and didn't get rejected.

With a wide smile, he took one of the rings and put it on her finger.

While Mavis took the other one, she followed Leo and put the ring on his ring finger on his right hand. Immediately, one of the monsters started to clap by instinct, triggering the seriousness of the claps from everyone present there.

"Wait... wait, did my daughter just get married now?"

Dracula, who was handcuffed along with Jonny, screamed and looked at the scene with wide eyes.
